Great Party Dip


We had a fun round of Monopoly here last night, this old favorite, Fiesta Dip was requested for a quick dinner. Everyone loves it - it would be a great addition to a New Year's Eve party buffet.

Fiesta Dip - ready in 15 minutes or less
2 cups (16 oz) sour cream
1 can (16 oz refried beans
1 (4 oz) chopped green chilies or jalapenos
1 envelope fiesta ranch dip mix
2 cups (8 oz) shredded Mexican or cheddar cheese, divided
Sliced olives, chopped tomato, green onion and shredded lettuce
Tortilla chips

In a shallow 1 and a half quart microwave-safe dish (I use a pie plate), combine sour cream, beans, chilies and dip mix. Stir in 1 cup cheese. Cover and microwave on high for 3 minutes. Stir; rotate dish a quarter turn. Cover and microwave 2 minutes longer until heated through. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and top with vegetables. Serve with chips. Makes about 5 cups.

I have a friend who makes this (she calls it 7-layer dip). We always request it at every friend gathering. It is always a big hit with everyone, even the kids. Big scoop Fritos are the best with it by far! They don't break as easily as tortilla chips so they are perfect with dip. Mmmm! :)

Cheri,

This is different than 7-layer dip and I would even go as far as to say it is better!!! :)
